DX900+ MultiLog Sensor for Racing and SailingIndustry’s First Bluetooth®-Enabled, Multifunctional SensorFeatures

• Dual axis, electromagnetic speed sensor

– Longitudinal and transverse speed sensors measure leeway speed and angle

– Competitive products only perform a calculation but do not truly measure leeway

– Real-time leeway feedback is essential for performance sailing: Understanding changes in leeway can mean the difference between winning and losing a race

• Fast response temperature sensor

• Integrated water depth

• Three-axis accelerometer and three-axis gyroscope

– Outputs heel and trim

AIRMAR®...IT’S WHAT’S UNDER YOUR BOAT.

Truly Measuring Leeway Delivers Unsurpassed Performance

DX900+ Benefits• Retrofitting is easy – retractable insert

fits most existing 51mm P617V Airmar thru-hull housings

• Measure reverse speed (which can be helpful for quick manuevers on motorboats)

• All-in-one housing; no moving parts

• Very low drag

App Features• Connect to your boat display as well

as your smart device (tablet, phone, etc.) via Bluetooth®

• Supports both iOS and Android platforms

• Displays all sensor features

• Performs speed calibration

• Provides diagnostic information for troubleshooting

• Offers interface to update firmware

• Easily configure update rate

Measuring Leeway You can see from the green spikes in the graph that the DX900+ (represented in green) is showing real, instantaneous speed, which sailors can use to determine which way to steer the boat in a competitive race. These spikes cannot be seen by the generic model data (represented in red).
